weirdest thing uve ever done
« on: March 07, 2004, 07:28:46 PM »
turkey, 2 count, 4 bagger, 2 count, i don't even remember the score, and a game later i had another 2 count and the third game i had 2 more

I was playin a 20 out to 3 line it was real wet and there was a huge bumper outside of 5, if i didn't catch it or got it out too late it would just skid and at the last second flip over to take out the 4 and 8 for me.

i think i left 5 or 6 two counts total in that set, and haven't done it since.

Well I have a new one now, because I just got home from bowling. Went up to the approach, got all ready, was about half way through my back swing and got distracted, pulled the ball really hard, like down the middld of the lane (was playing out to first arrow from like 30) juuuussssttt clipped the left side of te 7, and ended up with a 1-3-10. Of course I picked it up, just thought it was weird.

AM not A CHICK OF BOWLING but I wanted to be in Manda's clique And why would I "saw" pins in half, THATS A WASTE OF PINS! I'd rather blow it over with my storm, and 21mph ball speed on dry shots.

at a jbt tournament last year at parkway lanes in new jersey, a friend of mine missed right, the ball went into the ditch, and near the backend hit a dead wood in the gutter(with the top of the pin facing us).  the ball slammed into the pin, went straight up towards the head pin, and slammed into the machine.  there was a loud crash, and tons of glass came flying down onto the lane.  somehow, he managed to crack the light and also know a few screws out of the pinsetter.  craziest thing i have ever seen.

my cousin threw a house ball, much lighter than he should have been throwing, that flew out of his hand, hit the barrier inbetween the lanes, and got a strike on the lane next to us.  i have a habit of having crazy stuff happen to me.

i went front 5, pocket 7-10, back 5, twice in a tournament.  not fun.

i left the 7-10 4 straight frames, throwing 2 different balls, playing 2 different lines.

shot at a 10 pin, throwing about 24-25mph, the ball hit the pin, went into the pit, hit the curtain, and ricochet into the back edge of the pindeck, chunking out about a 5x4 piece of ball. come to find out, there was a screw sticking out, and the ball hit into the screw. And they wouldn't replace my ball. That poor old el nino gold.

First warmup throw in a center I'd never played before. Lanes are wood but look really wet and shiny. Aims for the the pin with my newly polished blue dot. Lo rev release with "no fingers". Ball goes straight the intended route until it turns at roughly 50 feet and flushes the pocket. Big surprise! Found out the lane shine was due to the lighting. The condition was dry on newly resurfaced lanes.
